They only hunt red Maple Leaf citizens, it seems.  So you might be safe. Lol

Rar.  Naughty Kitty.

No, I was referring to the infamous Cougar Attack what made Basket run off the road back in 2004.  At least he said it was a cougar.  He seemed really sincere about it, and sounded not at all the same as a guy who blames the fart smell in the room on the family dog.

I booked a room at Swiss Holiday, but for Wednesday and Thursday. Will many STNers still be around Thursday night?

Was the cougar anything like this?

Just made reservations for Dove and I at Eureka Suites for the 8th through the 13th.  We may cancel the Sunday reservation and camp out at one of the forests on Saturday and Sunday nights though.  But I want plenty of twisties time!

They have the following rooms available:

1 queen jacuzzi (single room)
3 single rooms (king bed, kitchenette)
2 queen suites

The single rooms seem to be a pretty darn good deal for 79 bucks a night.  Based on the other prices around the area, I have to say the lodging prices are damn good.

It is quite obvious what's going on there.  The cougars don't like the green team.  I don't have to worry.   Bigsmile

I booked a double room at the Pine Top Lodge for the 10th & 11th. $42/night!!!  Bigok

They have a couple of rooms left for those days.  Thumbsup


I spoke with the owner - she said that there's only one hotel between them and the Rodeway Thumbsup.

Kara at the Swiss Holiday recommends Land of Nod (Victorian elegance), Pine Top Lodge (100% non-smoking rooms), and another I already mentioned, the Eureka Suites.  There's always Traveler's if we get really desperate.


The Edelweiss is right across the street from the Rodeway.  Their website says $44 per night and I was considering staying there. They answered my email right away, but I couldn't contact them on the phone so I booked at the Pine Top for just $42!

Can't wait to see Chili again! (although he was really quiet at ESTn. Maybe he was sleeping one off?)

We live near E.S.Just a word of warning.In the time of year of the National rooms will get scarce,so you best book as early as you can.
And yes there are a few cougar,but many more black bear.They have taken out a rider or two!
If they run low in E.S. the next town is Berryville.Good luck!
